The aim of this paper is to analyze some urban models from the viewpoint of statistical theory. The derivations of the gravity model, Clark's formula etc. are given and methods for testing the models are discussed in some detail. Some empirical results are shown, based on data mainly from Stockholm, and some problems concerning computer algorithms are treated in that context.
